1 SG Oktober 2011 Ancient Glass Blog of The Allaire Collection: The Israel Museum, Jerusalem - Made by Ennion: Ancient Glass Treasures from the Shlomo Moussaieff Collection (site of show) Exhibition at The Israel Museum, Jerusalem Made by Ennion: Ancient Glass Treasures from the Shlomo Moussaieff Collection. The show presents twenty unique mold-blown glass vessels from the First century; an exceptional group of ancient mold-blown glass vessels, including seven highly rare examples of the work of the masterglassmaker Ennion. Ennion worked as a glassmaker about 1 to 50 A.D. His signature is known from over thirty surviving pieces, and many other works are attributed to him on the basis of style. He created the technique of mold blowing glass vessels. This new process allowed the vessel and its decoration to be created at the same time and permitted the creation of multiple copies of the same vessel. Ennion s clear, precise designs distinguish his work; he also minimized the visibility of the lines caused by the seams in the mold. Sometimes Ennion s marketing genius is overlooked for he was one of first artists to develop a brand name, Ennion Made Me. The location of Ennion s workshop is debated, in part because his work is found throughout the Roman Empire. Some scholars believe he worked in Sidon in modern Lebanon, while others assert that he worked in northern Italy. The inscriptions he frequently used as decoration may provide a clue. Though his name may have been Semitic in origin, he signed it in Greek, the language of the eastern Mediterranean, not Italy. The city of Sidon, where he may have worked, had all the raw material for glassmaking and extensive trade connections. Below are pictures of Ennion objects from the Shlomo Moussaieff Collection and Art Museums around the world.
